To achieve the goal of sustainable procurement, Hitachi released the revised Hitachi Group Sustainable Procurement Guidelines in July 2021. The guidelines are a communication tool informing procurement partners about Hitachi Group initiatives.They describe Hitachi policies and initiatives related to sustainability, and specify points that also require compliance by procurement partners.
For details, please refer to Hitachi Group Sustainable Procurement Guidelines.
The Guidelines are available in four languages: English, Japanese, Chinese and Thai.
Hitachi regards sustainability in its value chains as crucial. In dealing with its procurement partners, Hitachi commits itself to procurement activities based on its policies and codes of conduct.
To share our sustainable procurement policies, we have distributed the Sustainable Procurement Guidelines to roughly 30,000 procurement partners.
We continually request our procurement partners to comply with the Sustainable Procurement Guidelines, and explain the contents through sustainable procurement sessions.
